Help Buddhini with a roofer's skills: a burst pipe behind the wall
Buddhini has a burst pipe behind the wall, and can't afford a licensed roofer to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In December an inspector told me that my home has a burst pipe behind the wall. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $490 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed roofer who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $40.
The job should take about six hours. I'll make sure someone is home and will provide refreshments. I can share the inspector's written report on request.
If you're a roofer and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
I hope life is good to you.

Hope things get better soon, Buddhini. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together.
Good luck, Buddhini. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. God bless
Thanks for sharing this. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Sent it to 27 people at work.
Keep going, Buddhini. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Dehiwala
Stay strong, Buddhini. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry!
